Château de Kerlevénan

Château de Kerlevénan, 18th-century château in Sarzeau, France

Château de Kerlevénan is a mansion built in neoclassical style overlooking the Gulf of Morbihan in Sarzeau. The building features Corinthian pilasters, tuffeau stone facades, and a roof embellished with a balustrade, all positioned prominently above its park grounds.

The château was built in 1784 for Marie-Joseph-Armand de Gouvello and was seized during the French Revolution. His son later repurchased the estate and completed its Italian-style finishes.

The estate displays garden structures dating to the 1700s, including a former Temple of Love that was repurposed as a chapel and a Chinese pavilion. These buildings reflect the taste of the period for exotic and romantic architectural elements.

The estate can only be visited by prior arrangement, with tours focused on the park and exterior of the buildings. The interior is not open to the public as the Gouvello family continues to live there.

The original stables have been converted into family apartments where descendants of the first owners gather during summer months. This transformation shows how the property has maintained its connection to the family across generations.
